Bînahî dê hê-t-e çav-an li qad-ê sight will come.FUT-3SG-DIR eye-OBL.PL in open.space-OBL.F ‘Sight will come to the eyes in the open space.’ In the first quatrain, my original poem was missing the imperfective aspect marker, di-, on the verbs det, ‘give’ and ket, ‘do’ at the end of the first, second and fourth lines. Because Shushi used the aspect marker in her version, and seeing that these actions are indeed imperfective aspect, I added the affix. However, this put me over the syllable count in those lines. For the first line, Shushi recommended changing ronahî, ‘light,’ which has three syllables, to a synonym, çira. Regarding my use of the preposition(s) li nav, Shushi agreed that it was correct but also said that I could have used di nav…da. Use of the circumposition di nav…da would have provided the same meaning, but would have increased the syllable count by one.
213 In the second line, we had multiple options for the words for ‘rest’ and ‘pain,’ and so the decisions were not difficult. In order to reduce the syllable count, I changed tenahî, ‘rest,’ to Shushi’s suggestion, aram. In the third line of the quatrain, we were left in a quandary after adding the required feminine oblique ending, -yê, to the final word girî, ‘crying,’ for the syllable count was now too great. I inquired about changing bune spî, ‘become white,’ which was utilizing the directional enclitic (DIR), e, on bun, to simply bun spî. Shushi replied that people do not always speak the e enclitic, so that would work. I also asked if there was a difference between the order: bun spî and spî bun. She said that in this instance, spî sounds nicer before bun, though both are grammatically correct. With spî before bun, the directional enclitic is not an option. Lastly, in the fourth line, Shushi recommended using the verb boyax diket, ‘dye.’ This made more sense to her than the literal translation of the verb sibiẍ diket, ‘paint.’ Boyax diket is the verb used by women when putting henna on their skin, or for dying cloth. In the second quatrain, I needed more syllables in the first line and chose to add the word buhar, ‘spring.’ It seemed an appropriate addition since the blossoms and flowers of the spring months are the ones that vanish quickly. The addition does not really take away anything, nor add much, to the overall image of the line, and corresponds to Boerger’s eighth principle discussed in § 2.2.4.3, which allows for adjustments in word choices to accomodate the form (2009:17), in this case the number of syllables per line. Shushi also provided me with the word for ‘wither,’ diwêryin, a word which was not in my dictionaries. In the second line of the quatrain, I struggled to find enough syllables. I settled for the use of an idiom, av u av diçin, which I found in the translation of Hisin Silêvanî’s poem Ew Xanîma Henê, ‘That Woman.’ This decision accords with Boerger’s sixth principle (1997:38), which allows for the alteration or insertion of target langauge metaphorical imagery, as long as meaning is preserved. This idiom is a metaphor for something that quickly ‘disappears’ by falling into a river and
